Why do some healthcare workers hesitate to vaccinate?

A EuCARE survey with 2,079 HCWs across πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Ή πŸ‡§πŸ‡· πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ πŸ‡΅πŸ‡± πŸ‡±πŸ‡Ή β€” led by Prof. Francis Drobniewski (Imperial College London) β€” revealed:

  • Only 55.7% felt confident about COVID-19 vaccine long-term safety.
  • Support for mandatory vaccination was stronger for COVID-19 than for flu.
  • Colleagues & scientists were trusted far more than politicians.

What helped? Easy workplace access, clear scientific info, and seeing peers get vaccinated.

πŸ‘‰ One lesson: vaccine promotion must be tailored β€” not one-size-fits-all.
